LOGAN’S LONESTAR HEROES, a new western romantic suspense series by Becky McGraw

Dave Logan, former recon marine and ex-cop is a man who lived inside the box of government restrictions and red tape for many years. When he had enough of
seeing criminals and corruption continue despite his best efforts because of that red tape, he decided to do something about it. He assembled a group of
likeminded men with unique skill sets, cowboys of a different sort, to combat crime in the new wild, wild west.Deep Six Security exists to fill the gap
between the right and wrong side of the law. The men of Deep Six operate just beyond the box. They are willing to do what it takes to keep their home state
safe. They are patriots, rebels and most importantly renegades. They are as different as night and day, but they have one thing in common, their love of
God, country and the great state of Texas.

If the six pack doesn’t work, there’s always a shotgun and a shovel…

TILL DEATH (#1, Logan's Lonestar Heroes)

Blurb:

Dave Logan, owner of Deep Six Security, is stunned when former Dallas FBI head, Susan Whitmore, darkens his doorstep accusing him of being the cause of her
losing her job. After hearing her situation, Dave feels something he never expects to feel--sorry for her. But he also knows any problems she had at the
agency were all her own fault. The woman has a tongue so sharp it could rip a man to shreds, and had many times. There was a reason her agents dubbed her
the Barracuda.

Although Dave needs agents in the worst way, and Susan, with an IQ higher than Einstein, better skills and more experience than any of his men, along with
a master's degree in criminal justice, is more than qualified to be a member of his team, he just doesn't need the drama she and her mouth would bring to
Deep Six . Even as his brain said no way though, his damned white-knight complex forces him to offer her a job as his temporary secretary.

Realizing he's made a huge mistake hiring her, Dave calls in favors to get her interviews to get her out of his office. Before he can get rid of her
though, Dave gets a new case only Susan can help him with. A wealthy Dallas oilman and his trophy wife ordered a designer baby from a local fertility
clinic, and the surrogate has gone missing with the baby. The couple wants Deep Six Security to investigate the facility and find the baby, but the only
way Dave can do that is to get inside. To get inside his only option is to go undercover with Susan, posing as a wealthy married couple looking for a baby.
What they find when they get to the spa-like compound is frightening. Payoffs, missing surrogates and young women being used as lab rats are just the tip
of the iceberg.

Can two alpha personalities, both used to being in charge, work together long enough to figure out what's going on at the clinic, or will they kill each
other before the bad guys at the facility have a chance? If they're lucky, perhaps the delicious friction between them will turn into something so hot the
place spontaneously combusts. Or if they're luckier, maybe it will turn into something which might just last till death do them part.

Dave huffed a
breath too as he followed Mac out of the conference room.Yes, the sooner he got Susan out of his
office the better.He had been avoiding
her like the plague, hadn’t seen her since their confrontation over the
popsicles, but he knew now his luck was running out.

Against all
odds, his men were becoming attached to her and she was obviously encouraging
it. The last thing he needed in this
office was friction or drama, and he could see it coming with the new Susan
Whitmore fan club. Dave just needed her
gone, before she embedded herself into his group and removing her would be like
extracting a cactus spine.

Just as he
rounded the corner into the outer office, Susan walked out of the kitchen
toward him. She was sucking on
something, but it didn’t look like a popsicle.
When she got closer he realized it was some kind of candy. It was also the first time he’d seen her that
day, or any day since the day he told her to lose the baggy suits.

Her new uniform
of choice was skin tight yoga pants and a tank top. No wonder his men were gaga. Dave just barely kept his own tongue from
flapping out of his mouth, as his eyes ticked over her full breasts and down
her mile-long, muscular legs to her toes while she walked over to her desk. Dave knew Susan was athletic, and over the
years he’d often wondered what her body looked like under those baggy black
suits. Well he didn’t have to wonder
anymore. Every square inch of her tight
body was right there for him to see.
There was absolutely nothing left to his imagination. Good God—she was built like a brick
shithouse. His body quickly registered
that fact too.

Susan paused at
her desk and held his eyes as she slowly slid the white stick out of her mouth
until a round, pink ball appeared. She
stopped to twirl the candy between her lips, which made matters much, much
worse. As she pulled the candy from her
mouth, it made a sucking, popping noise and Dave bit back a groan.

Susan’s eyebrow
lifted, and she smiled. Waving the candy
at him, she said breezily, in that husky voice of hers, “Howdy, stranger. Did I catch you before you scurried into your
office like a cockroach? Or did you need
something?”

Now, that was
definitely a loaded question, Dave thought, as he stood there staring at her
breasts. He couldn’t help himself from
giving his imagination free rein. Unless
she was a mind reader, it wouldn’t hurt, and he didn’t think her super brain
had given her that superpower. If it
had, he was probably a dead man, because with her standing right there in front
of him, he imagined her throaty, raspy voice would sound just that way when she
moaned as he lifted her hips and shoved his aching cock inside of her
body. Her body would make that delicious
sucking, popping noise she’d made with the candy when he pulled back out. He’d fuck her slowly, torture her until she
begged him to make her come. His name
would be a hoarse, almost soundless, whisper on her full lips when he finally
gave her what she asked for. Her body
would clutch his dick, squeeze it like a vise, pulling him further inside of
her with every pulsation of her orgasm, until he came too. Dave would fuck her all night long in every
position he could think of, and some that had yet to be invented. She would have to beg him for a few minutes
to catch her breath in that same raspy voice.

If given the
chance, Dave would spend all night long, hell a week, giving her exactly what
she was asking for by wearing those clothes, sucking that damned candy, and
using that breathy whisper. At that
second, he wanted that more than he wanted his next breath.

As much fire as
this woman had inside of her, he imagined she would be a freak between the
sheets. He wanted to meet that freak and
teach her a lesson about teasing a man.
Tie that freak to his bed and keep her there until he worked her out of
his system.

Dave’s chin
dropped to his chest, a groan rumbled in his chest and his breathing hitched,
as his cock went rock solid behind his fly.
He was surprised when he felt a finger under his chin right before it
was tipped upward. His eyes met Susan’s
curious blue stare and the spell was broken.

“You okay, boss
man? You look a little…flushed,” she purred.

With a smug
grin, she held his gaze and lifted the candy ball, stuck out her tongue and
curled it to twirl the candy in the well, then flicked her tongue over it
making little mewling noises in her throat.
When she added slow flirtatious sweeps of her eyelashes over her big
blue eyes, Dave knew for sure she was playing him, and he wasn’t amused.

She’s a very smart woman.

Evidently more
than smart enough to figure out that his problem with her eating the popsicles
was about a lot more than a drip trail in the kitchen. And he was almost certain now that the
skin-tight yoga suits weren’t about comfort.
This was her bid to pay Dave back for his baggy suit comment. Mind games to teach him a lesson.

Because Susan
Whitmore thought she was smarter than him.

She would be
the one learning a lesson today. About
him. “I need to see you in my office, now,” Dave growled as he turned to stomp
toward his office.
